Master Password: bug or compat pb with PM

Unread post by mzoro » 2023-11-12, 15:06

This addon makes the following annoying effect:

If PM is minimized, then after clicking to open it, the window first opens in the (last set) medium size, then quickly switch to its maximized size (if the last use of the browser was in maximized window). This create a kind of very annoying blinking effect.

To reproduce the bug: install Master password add, set the window height and width of PM to half the screen size (say), then maximize PM' s window to full screen with the dedicated top-right button, then minimize the window with the dedicated top-right button, then click on PM tab to reopen the window and observe the effect.

Do you have the option turned on to lock the browser on minimize? That sometimes takes a while to repaint the UI.

Auto-lock, on the extension's options, lock tab.

autolock is not enabled.
What do you suggest, that I enable it ?
I tried and this does not change anything.

No idea, maybe something with your video driver? Try toggling hardware acceleration under advanced preferences.
